Matteo Baseball

Matteo's team had a game today, which they won! I think it was 11-8. The game was over because time ran out (2 hours max in this league). They played at Gossage Park where trains also go by (good thing, for me) but the fields are entirely wrapped by chain link (no good camera views).

Matteo is #4.

AJ's Birthday

It was AJ's birthday breakfast this morning. All the great kid breakfast items were there including a new one, Baseball Cupcakes.

This item actually arrived the next day, explaining the helmet gift today!

Tracy and Nana put the snake head together
from an Etsy pattern for AJ's spring
musical at school, Life Cycles.

Baseball Cupcakes

He really wanted an expansion pack
for Settlers of Catan. He got two!

Easter 2019

Really nice, easy day! Off to church which included the kids' singing with the worship team and an Easter egg hunt! Then back home for a nice relaxing day, movies (including Jesus Christ Superstar), and dinner with home-made pastrami, mashed potatoes, cheesy asparagus, and cucumber with whipped dill cream cheese and cherry tomato. Not mention generously interspersed chocolate all day.

Tracy fell in love with this swan...

Holy Saturday, Batman

Turned out to be a very busy day... First up was AJ's baseball game, followed by Matteo's baseball game (at the other end of town, of course). (There was no fence-free camera angle for Matteo's game.) Then Easter eggs at the Krebs', followed by taking photos at Woodmen Heights Saturday evening Easter service.

The boys play at three different fields that have trains right next door!
In this case, the field was between the southbound tracks (pictured top center)
and the northbound tracks (pictured below) at Larkspur.
At least six trains went by during the game.
Larkspur is about 20 minutes north of us along I-25.
